Summer Sock Club — July Socks Finished!

We’ve been plugging away over in the Feel Good Yarn Co Summer Sock Club this past month and it’s been such a bright, fun month indeed. For me, as soon as I saw the pattern, its sizing, and the colorway…

I had no choice but to knit these socks for my daughter. She’s big enough now to be able to wear a ladies small in a lot of sock patterns and the small for Kate Atherley‘s Summer Morning Socks — July’s club pattern — was just perfect for her.

I don’t normally work lacey patterns for socks, so this was an extra fun treat.

I knit the first sock up nice and quickly and found the lace patterning really fun.

The second sock — yes, I flew through that, too. Most of the WIP photos look like this though…

As I worked on them in the basement, hiding from the heat & humidity.

And that type of photo, so doesn’t do this justice.

Not one bit!

As I knit around and around, the pressure to finish put on me by my daughter was incredible — she was so anxious to get to this point.

You might not believe how excited she was to get these on today.

Needless to say, three hours later and they haven’t come off.

The fit is great on her. As predicted by the pattern, they are just a smidge snug getting them on — perfect considering I know the SilverSpun Sock will comfortably stretch just enough with wear for a perfect fit.

One more month to go in this super fun club — remember that if you’re knitting along that sharing your progress and FOs in the Ravelry groupwill put you in the drawing for a couple fantastic prizes at the end of the summer! I hope you’ll pop in and show us what you’ve been knitting!
